The Bad Batch Season 3 - Blog Posts

The way crosshair struggles in this scene actually rips my heart out

"You should be more careful with your shooting hand"

Left me in absolute shock-

I was ready to kill myself

I genuinely thought that he was gonna die at this point

Okay so I've posted the first half of my thoughts of the finale, I promise I will get round to the second half

I'm just incredibly slow and forgetful, forgive me haha

I'll probably do it tomorrow as I'll have more time

But don't quote me on that, there's a high chance I may forget again

I absolutely love seeing the squad actually work as a squad

Like the little taps on each others shoulders as they move forward is so satisfying

Okay so I hate hemlock as much as the next bad batch stan, HOWEVER, I can not deny the fact that this scene was incredibly badass

Like genuinely frightening, but so fucking cool

Can we talk about omega talking to Jax about Wrecker and his fear of heights for a moment.

Tears were shed

"He's the strongest soldier I know"

The way she speaks so highly of her brothers always gets me so emotional

The way as soon as crosshair said its what he deserves hunter shot back with

"Don't even think about plan 99, crosshair"

He cares so much, he doesn't want to lose another brother, he won't let that happen again

The determination that all of the boys had this episode was amazing

"Clone force 99 died with tech"

ouch.

I'm speechless

This is everything I could have hoped and more, I need a bit to process everything and then very soon I'll share my thoughts with you all

Still reeling from the fact that was the last time we'll ever see them all...

Happy last bad batch eve, I'm going to miss seeing our boys every week 🙁

Here's to hoping they all are able to live happily ever after for the rest of their lives

If not, I'll be in your walls Jennifer x

...

Happy second to last bad batch eve guys..

I actually don't know what I'm gonna do when this show is over, it's been such a big part of my life recently. Its helped me get through so much tough stuff that's happened to me, I really am gonna miss it so much

I just hope it's somewhat a happy ending for them, it's the least they deserve

Sedate me.

Shoot me.

This man is too fine. TOO FINE.

Kicking my feet giggling at every little thing this man does

Echo channelling his inner James bond

Arc trooper training coming in clutch

Fives would be proud

One thing from this episode this week that I absolutely LOVE is omega's confidence and determination.

Like that girl is not messing around no more, she got put back in, she's going to get herelf out again.

It makes me so emotionally cause like looking back to S1 she was so tiny and so innocent and now she's grown into this amazingly strong confident girl with the help of her brothers, the people round her, and also herself.

She's matured so much and it's so great to see yet also kinda bittersweet because she's not that little girl we first met 3 years ago anymore, she's grown into so much more, more than any of us could have imagined.

Props to the creators of this show she such amazing character development not only in omega but in so many others too, it's truly amazing.

Okay so sorry for being inactive I've had a hectic two weeks BUT I am back and have caught up with the bad batch and omg I am so pumped

Thoughts on the recent episode coming soon, I promise

"I like a challenge" OMEGAAAA THATS MY GIRL SHES SO AHHHHHHHHHHHH IM SO PROUD OF HER

rampart being hurled this entire episode while unconscious filled me with immense joy

I'll be busy tomorrow so won't be able to watch this next episode until the afternoon so I won't be here on tumblr until I've watched it just so I avoid spoilers.

Once I've watched it, I will definitely share my thoughts with you all as I have no one else who is as crazy about this show as me to share them with

Sorry what.

Crosshair don't say that

"If we all go in we won't all make it out"

Says who. Not me. No. They will all make it out. Trust.

ALSO,

"abort the mission"

"Negative"

Hunter stop. I need you alive. If he dies I die.

I'm so not prepared for tomorrow

Happy bad batch eve everybody

Who's ready for some more emotional damage 🥰🤞

Okay guys I am half tempted to start writing fanfiction.. but idk if that might be a mistake

I'd like to try, I think main character/s I'd write for are definitely hunter maybe crosshair and the others if I feel like I might be able to

So in terms of this I think I've got a few prompts and ideas to start with but if anyone has any other suggestions then please do let me know and I'll see if I can complete your requests

I don't know how good I am at writing so it may be shit or it may be okay, we will see LMAO but I know I just need more fluffy fics about hunter so I'm gonna take it upon myself to supply more 🫡

But it will most likely take me a long time so bare with me

If I see one more person saying hunter is gonna blame crosshair for losing omega again I might go insane. Like everyone is obviously entitled to their own opinion but like I feel like some people are just not understanding hunters character at all, and with him being my absolute favourite it hurtsssss to see all the hate towards him sometimes.

I believe that yes, hunters is going to be mad and upset that again, omega has been taken from them, from him, but I don't think he'll direct it towards crosshair - (at least not fully maybe in the heat of the moment but not overall)

Hunters been through losing omega once before to which he heavily blamed himself for. We saw how deeply routed in grief and guilt he was in episode 2, with wrecker seemingly being the only thing keeping him sane at the time. So therefore I truly believe he's not gonna hold it against crosshair for losing omega a second time.

Hunter knows how ruthless the empire is and how they will stop at nothing to get what they want. He saw that completely the first time omega got captured. He won't blame crosshair for losing omega because he knows what it feels like. He'll know that crosshairs gonna be feeling incredibly guilty for letting omega go forward with her plan.

As well as this hunter is fully aware that omega is incredibly stubborn when it comes to making decisions - and that's not necessarily a bad thing, btw. Like in season 1, she had her mind set upon helping Hera out, and when Hunter said no, she would not take that as an answer. Her whole character is built upon helping others. So if crosshair explains to hunter that it was Omega's choice to turn herself in, he'll know that it would have been incredibly difficult to argue and change her mind he won't blame crosshair for losing her.

It's the empires fault they are the ones to blame, no one else's.

Anyways, that was a long rant but I just feel like alot of the hate towards hunter is unwarranted and all because some people don't understand the sort of person he is, yes he may seem dark and broody but all in all he is just a guy who has to put on this hard exterior for the safety of his squad, he has to be the strong one for everybody. In reality, he's a big ol' softie who understands people and cares for others more than he lets on. 🫶

Okay but a positive note

Can we talk about how Hunter has finally learnt how to do a proper handshake

I'm so proud of him

(Shitty video from my phone of my TV screen cause I can't figure out how to make gifs)

gonna jump off a very tall something after watching this

have i ever mentioned how enjoyable it is seeing hunter beat people up

all he wanted was TWO ice cones 😭😭😭😭😭

Cad bane has returned only to become a kiddy snatcher again

You are cool dude but come on leave the kids alone

never ask a hunter girlie why they replay scenes like this over and over again. just accept it.

The way Hemlocks lab with the literal CHILDREN actually made me so incredibly uncomfortable and upset just shows how amazing these writers and producers are at creating such an intense and impactful atmosphere.

Literal shivers he's actually one of the scariest characters in star wars imo

I have so much to say about these two episodes but have no idea how to put it all into words so I'll feed back my opinions once I've recovered

All I'm gonna say is I am in absolute shock and emotional turmoil 🥰🫶
